Do you get this much
Spam?
This is the ammount of unsolicited mail l received so far just this month.
I am not sure what happened since:
- I never give my address out online unless I am ordering something from a trusted site
- My name, address, and phone number are unlisted
- I am on the do not call list.
I have a feeling it is the last one, since the credit card companies cannot call me they send me stuff instead.
I am half tempted to send in every application there so I can have 16 credit cards.

I especially love the ones that come with the postage paid envelopes inside....I mail them back with each other'* unfilled applications inside. Just make sure to shred your name and address first.

But in the last week I must have recieved atleast 2 of those same Chase CC apps you have there. I'm not sure how much junk like that I get each month since I usally file it into the shreader soon after seeing it.

I saw a thing (may have been on here) where you can ship up to 72 pounds on one of those postage paid envelopes. A guy sent old tires in a box to the people that were sending him jink, and they had to foot the bill.
